Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Winter enthusiasts appreciate the park's cross-country ski trails, snowshoeing and ice fishing.Pelican Lake is a popular stopping point for migrating waterfowl. Each fall, geese and ducks use the lake's open waters as a resting area. A variety of shore birds spend their entire summer in or near the park.Most noticeable are the large white pelicans that frequent the lake. Pelicans were so numerous when the region was first settled that the lake was named in their honor. An observation tower on one of the hiking trails gives visitors a bird's-eye view of the area.Activities:Archery rangeBasketballBikingBirdwatchingBoatingCampingCanoeing/KayakingCross country skiingFishingHikingHorseback RidingHorseshoesSnowshoeingSoccerSwimmingAmenities:'BeachBoat RampCampgroundCamping cabinsCanoe/kayak rentalsDrinking waterDump stationElectric campsitesFishing pole checkoutFlush toilets/showersGame checkoutHorse campPicnic ShelterPlaygroundSnowshoe checkoutVault toilets</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/bloomfield-mt/report/place/pelican-lake-recreation-area-watertown-sd.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.
